I wonder if they will keep Aikenite sprinting this year.

Of course, if he runs well they'll probably try the Met Mile next. Or the Sword Dancer.

Wasn't Data Link pointing to the Blue Grass?

Minor issue. He is out

I really like Brilliant Speed in here. Any chance that he drifts out to 8-1 - 10-1 range.

I really like him too - doesn't he have to be 10-1+ easy?

I'm worried that he takes money and isn't going to look as nice at 4-1 or 9-2. I think this going to be a sweet betting race.

King Congie, Santiva, Sensational Slam, Willcox Inn, Wilkinson, and Crimson China all look like they should be shorter prices to me.

Nice job, guys. Looking at the pedigree, his 2nd dam is a full sister to Touch Gold, half to With Approval. I don't suppose he's magically developed an affinity for dirt since age 2, has he? I feel like I'm tilting at windmills when I get hopeful about there being a G1 caliber, ungelded son of Dynaformer that likes dirt (besides Barbaro obviously) and doesn't get sold overseas.

Ms. Webber isnt selling .. Dynaformer gets plenty of dirt winners and to tag him as a turf only stallion is not correct. If you listened to Nathan Fox on ATR's on Friday he outlined Dynaformers success very well. That doesnt mean that Chuck is wrong about Brilliant Speed being a turfer just that Dynaformer can produce any type.

Chuck if she doesnt get excited about winning the Blue Grass and taking a shot in a few weeks whats the point of breeding and race?
